The loss of the urea cycle and ornithine metabolism in different insect orders: An omics approach

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Among urea cycle enzymes, only the nitric oxide synthase gene is universally present across insect genomes. All Hemiptera species lack the enzymes needed to convert citrulline to arginine, and some also lack the pathway from arginine to ornithine. Putrescine and spermidine synthesis is conserved in all insects, but aphids lack the capability to produce

The mitochondrial genome of the assassin bug Acanthaspis cincticrus (Hemiptera: Reduviidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Acanthaspis cincticrus is described in this study. The sequenced mitogenome is a typical circular DNA molecule of 15,686 bp, containing 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, 22 tRNA genes and a control ...

A new piece in the repeatome puzzle of Triatominae bugs: The analysis of Triatoma rubrofasciata reveals the role of satellite DNAs in the karyotypic evolution of distinct lineages

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Satellite DNAs comprise the major component of the Triatoma rubrofasciata repeatome, highlighting their central role in genome composition and architecture. Satellite DNA families show recent amplification in heterochromatin and older, more divergent satellite DNAs located in euchromatin, indicating distinct evolutionary histories.
